rapidity that within less than an boor alter
the alarm was sounded the entire Seventh
avenue halt ot the building was demolished.
The root had'tallen In, the walls were tot
tering and the entire space which had been
accupled tor the enormous stage, the largest
any opera-house In the world, was a roar
lag furnace of flame.
The Immense auditorium, with Its hand
some decorations and furnishings, was also
completely wrecked, and It was only with the
most persistent and berolo efforts that the
firemen were able to prevent the flames from
extending to the apartment-house section ot
the building on the Broadway fide.
Hernia Properties Destroyed.
Besides the great loss to the stockholders ot
the Opera-IIouse, a rest amount ot Taluable
scenery, properties and costumes, which It
has taken years to accumulate, hare been
totally destroyed, together with all the musi
cal scores and other Taluable works which
belonged to the Opera-Bouse.
A very targe part ot the scenery and cos
tumes and designs for the new works to be
produced at the coming opera season be
longed to Mr. Abbey.
The work ot preparing tnls scenery has
been going on all Bummer long under the
direction ot Mr. Hoyt, the aeenlo artist, and
a large part ot It had been completed.
It is estimated that his losses alone will
xceed aioo.OOO, and will possibly reach
UO.OOO.
Besides this, all the scenery which was to
be used In the new ballet which Is to be put
on the stage at the Casino was being stored
in the Opcra-Uouse, where It had been
painted under Mr. Boyt'a direction, and It has
now gone up in smoke and name. This alone
was worth tio.ooo.
New scenery for " The Tempest," which Is
to be produced by AugustlnDsly at the open

The stage at the Metropolitan, In fact, has
been an Immense scenlo workshop all Sum
mer long, and within the short space ot a
tingle hour the result ot all this labor was
completely destroyed.
No definite estimate ot the total losses can
yet be made ; but as far as can be judged
they will considerably exceed half a million
dollars, including the damage to the building

Loxdom, Aug. ST. Another passenger who
arrived at Uravesend Thursday on the
steamer Oemma from Hamburg has died from
cholera at the Oravesend Hospital.
There is deep Indignation at the careless

and passed the Gemma, particularly In view
ot the fact tbat they had been ordered
to be most searching In their examina

whole affair shows how utterly useless quar

charged with their enforcement are Intel,
llgent enough to know the danger to which
they expose the whole people If they do not
properly fulfil the duties Intrusted to them.
Considerable uneasiness has been created
by the knowledge thai some ot the Gemma's

Chicaoo, Aug. 27. John s. Hamilton, ex-Surgeon-General

Frot. Hamilton takes the view tbat unnec

produce a panic and result Injuriously.
ProL Hamilton said: "I think there Is ab
solutely no occasion for alarm, although
there Is every reason for oxtreme vigilance
on tho part ot those Intrusted with the man
agement ot our sanitary matters.
" The National and local authorities havo
better sanitary arrangements than ever be
fore, the laws are more practical, and sani
tary science has more resources than for

country are fully alert but some ot
them seem- to forget that one of the

wltn sanitary administration Is the preven
tion ot panic, which paralyzes the Industries
snd dries up the channels of trade, and does

Qcakaktimc, 8. 1., Aug. 27. La Touralne,
the French line steamship which sailed last
Saturday from the cholera-Infected port of
Havre, has, contrary to the expectations ot
the Quarantine and Health officers ol New
York, escaped the unenvlablo dla'lnctlonot
being tho first ship to Introduce the plague to
the Western Continent.
Grave apprehensions have been felt by
Quarantine officials because advlcos had beon
received from Havre tbat Immigrauts who
had travelled with those who had secured
passage on La Touralne, and tvbo bad been
compelled to remain in port en account ot tho
crowded condition of the steerage, bad been
seized with the cholera before tho ship left
tho harbor. The suspicion that those who had
taken passago mutt necessarily bo Infected
and tbat thu shin would bo plague-ridden be
lore reaching this port appeared to be well
founded and was shared by the health , au
thorities on this sldouflbo ocean.
The Quarantine ortlclals trcro fully prepared
to find some or tho 41.1 steerage passengers
on the French liner sick or Infected.
When La Touralne dropped anchor off

onircr Jenkins and Deputies Tallmadge and
Sanborn boarded the ship without delay.
They foijiid Ship's Surgeon M. Drrrrcagalx
waiting at the ladder, his face wreathed in
smiles.
" No plague here," slid the Surgeon. We
aro all sound and well, thank God."
Tho surgeon reported that tLcre was not a

Ihoblllof health, and Is dcomrd extraordi

Tho bill ot health, with the additional
Consular certificates, did not, however, deter
Dr. Jenkins from taking extraordinary pre
cautions. At bis request tho 250 saloon passengers
were lined up, Inspected carefully and passed.
Tho 110 sccoud cabin passengers vt'ro sub
jected to tslmllar treatment, and then the
steorsge was visited.
There was a total number ot 415 Immi
grants, nearly all healthy looking men and
women. Thoy wero examined individually,
and questions wore put aud answered satis
factorily. Not a symptom of dlarrnmal
ttouble, the most suspicious Indication of the '
dreaded disease, cuuld be found and the pas
sengers were accordingly passed.
Then the disinfecting vault under the Pur
ser's oitlca was visited and found to bo In
readiness for the fumigation of the baggage.
Dr. Jenkins personally supervised the oper
ations, and had all susplclous-looklng pieces
of baggage taken npart, spread out In the
steel-lined, atr-tlght vault: and the steam
turned on until the heat registered 213 de
grees. The baggage was kept In the dlsturcctlng
room lor two hours. Then the malls, as an
additional precaution, wero disinfected both
by steam and sulphur, as tho leather bags aro
deemed especially adapted tor concealing and
preserving dlseaso germs. Ths more rus
plrtjus pieces were kept In tumlgatorfor at
least five hours, and when tho ship
weighed anchor and started for hor
